Greetings Jorge Rivera immigration attorney.

Today we will be discussing immigration changes for the victims of domestic violence. This twist is very interesting because it tells us that the abused person may have lived with the abuser at any time in the past.

The president's administration Biden is again loosening the rule to make it easier to obtain the residence for victims of domestic violence. If the couple at some point in their lives cohabited, then married and fought on their honeymoon, they may qualify under this change.

Validity of the work permit

Another change is that the stepchildren continue to qualify for domestic violence even if their parent has divorced the abuser. Also stepfathers continue to qualify in the event that the stepchild abuses them after the divorce.

All these changes are very important because they allow many people to qualify. In addition to this, it is important to mention that they have extended the validity of the work permit for victims of domestic violence from one year to two years.

Physical and verbal abuse

All these changes are very good, but we have to know how to take advantage of them. Many people do not know that they qualify for the domestic violence because, being separated, they think: "but my husband is not going to ask me anymore" or they are in the process of divorce or they are afraid of their partner and what they do not know is that one can apply without having been physically abused. Verbal abuse is also violence.

Did they insult you, mistreat you, were they aggressive towards you, did they threaten you? This is the typical thing that happens to immigrants when they are married to U.S. residents or U.S. citizens. It is simple. If this has happened to you, you can apply without your partner knowing about it.

Let's take advantage of this domestic violence law that forgives undocumented entry. It may even forgive reentry after a deportation if the trip is related to domestic violence.
